The Power of Song

Kendra attended the show the other night, and one of the songs I played ("Leave the Thinking to the Smart People") took her down memory lane:

My roommate freshman year hated that song. i played the hell out of it once i found out. apparently she thought i was insinuating that i thought she was stupid. the minute the song came on she'd start screaming, "i'm not dumb!!!" and then throw stuff and storm out of the room. this is just one facet of our experience. i can't hear the song without thinking about that.

Hey Frank-- Should we leave the thinking to racists like Daniel Pipes? I guess he's one of the "smart people" that you link to.
